Putrid>>GOD FORSAKEN - FINLAND

The band was formed in December of 1990. This Finnish band got its
start
on Adipocere Records of France with its death/doom metal. They had
previously used 1991 to release the Exhumation demo and the God
Forsaken
7".
Singer Mika was forced to leave after the debut because of hearing
problems. The band toured Europe with Pyogenesis and Anathema and
featured Mythos drummer Teemu Hautaniemi for
a while in the absence of Pohto. When Koykka and Pohto left (the latter
for the second time) the band came to an end.
That wasn't the end through. In the spring of 2000 God Forsaken was
resurrected. The band's new line-up features the old one minus the
bassist and adds a second guitarist. In 2002 the band released a CD
demo
called Electric Release. This recording featured bassist Mika Pajula
and
guitarist second Kai Saarela.
